The_Ibex Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 (edited) Well here we go. Only the 2nd diary I’ve done on here. Im in a 1.5 x 1.5 roof cube. It’s going to be in compost using biobizz nutes. I like to keep it as simple as possible really. Just grow and bloom. Probably some Epsom salts. I planted 20 OGC on 21/08/19 into a BioBizz light mix seed tray after being in tepid water for 36 hours They had popped their heads up 3 days later under a t5. Only 15 of the 20 popped but that’s plenty for me that is. I try and do 2 or 3 grows a year which leaves me with plenty of smoke for me and missus. This is them at maybe a week to 10days old after being potted up into 3 inch pots @Dinafem-Mark Edited October 5, 2019 by KarlPilkington1 Added Mark 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Ibex Posted October 5, 2019 Author Share Posted October 5, 2019 I potted them up again and this was them on the 9th of September just after watering. I also put them under two 315w cmh’s and they’re doing really well. this is 19 days after planting from seed. Buzzing so far. Potted up again on 12th September into 3l pots and this was them on the 15th September just after watering again 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranec Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 I'm gonna pull up a pew for this one, good luck bud 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Ibex Posted October 5, 2019 Author Share Posted October 5, 2019 Potted up into final 6.5l pots on 21/09/19 and left them to root out the pots before switching. this is them maybe 5 days later starting to fill the canopy nicely. No trimming or nothing yet. I’ve just been tucking the fan leaves under and there’s quiet a few tops forming 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Ibex Posted October 5, 2019 Author Share Posted October 5, 2019 I flipped on the 26/09/19 and turned on the other 2 cmhs so they’re now under 4, one in each corner (obviously ) haha This is them a couple of days ago which brings us up to date. I’ve give them a couple of feeds of 1ml/l grow and 1ml/l bloom which was upped Thursday to 2ml/l bloom. Being fed about 2 litres every 2 days. Temp is a steady 26c on 20c lights off. So impressed with these plants so far and they’re already giving off a rich smell. Going to give them a proper trim over the next few days taking off all the under growth. Thanks for looking in. I’m still quite a noob so any input or advice is much appreciated 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polo71 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 I have never fed bloom to a plant before 3 weeks into flower but everyone is different and every grow is different. @Owderb I am sure will keep you on the right track 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Fat2EatThat Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 (edited) Whereas I start introducing bloom at trace levels 2 to 3 weeks before I flip to help guard against burn when you do up the bloom levels at flowering time different strokes and all that but also everyone's environment is different and ambient conditions are random. @KarlPilkington1 your doing a grand job mate,real healthy and good growth,so congrats.

polo71 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Never been past 3ml per litre of bloom plus 2ml of fish mix since I stopped using Plant magic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Ibex Posted October 5, 2019 Author Share Posted October 5, 2019 Cheers for the advice. They were looking a bit pale as well but they’ve perked up since. @polo71 I’ve got some fishmix as well but not needed it. I’ve read owderbs diary a few times mate. Brilliant read and learnt a lot from it. Keep it simple is what he says. Cheers for the help My feeding schedule is based on@oldtimer1 biobizz routine and it hasn’t let me down yet oldtimer1 quote “Once you are on 12/12 start feeding 1 ml of both grow and bloom to a litre of water. At about week 2 of flowering change the mix to 1 ml grow and 2 ml bloom per litre. At week 3 [21 days] a one off feed of a heaped table spoon of epsom salts per 10 litres add to that 1 ml of grow and 2 ml of bloom. Round the 4 week mark, the mix is 1ml gr and 3 ml bl. Once you start to see browning of pistils change to 2 ml gr and 1 ml bl keep with that till the end. All you really need is grow and bloom + a little epsom salts. Does this make sense?“ cheers 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leafneck Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Looking very healthy Karl, for the sake of the diary Karl would you record the height of plants each week for the 1st 3 weeks of flower so any future OGC growers know what stretch to expect? Wish you all the best bud 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Ibex Posted October 9, 2019 Author Share Posted October 9, 2019 Day 14 flower 2.5ml bloom 1ml grow temps 26c/20c So I was gonna wait to give them a trim until stretch was over but they’ve slowed down a bit now. Not finished going up yet but enough. Plus, I thought I’d do it Sunday cos I’m goosed through the week from work. So I’ve trimmed the lot Sunday night and had a bit of a tidy up I’ve just give them a feed tonight and upped the bloom to 2.5ml cos they was looking a little pale for me. This is them tonight with little buds staring to form @Leafneck how’s it going pal. They’ve stretched about 25-30cm roughly so far and they range from 70-80cm tall which is good for my roof cube. @The Padawan we started this shit together mate. Can’t see either of us stopping anytime soon. How’s them chem dog coming along? Upped the temps? alright @Dinafem-Mark out of 15 plants, I’d say 12 of them are pretty much identical in height and structure which is pretty impressive. How they smoke as good as they are to grow 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leafneck Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Brilliant update, I found mine started producing the bud sites around 14 days too. Very easy to manage the stretch too. I found out of my 8 plants there was only around 150mm difference between Tallest and shortest but a little super cropping gave me a fairly even canopy. Really enjoying your diary Karl, keep up the good work 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
